What Brazilian Artist do you mean? Do you have an example?Originally Posted by Prolifical ENG
Black Uhuru ==> hot , Marley ==> hot , Tosh ==> hot...
But I would say that is not all Reggae, because Junior Reid, Bounty K., Buju, Capleton, Beenie & Sizzla are the new generation, the "Dancehall"-Generation.
Of course the are very hot as well!
I don't consider them dancehall. Dancehall was like the sellout of reggae that started in the 80s through to present. However Capleton & Sizzla and others have started a roots renaissance back in the late 90's.
You can tell how roots came back by looking at Beres Hammond's career. (forgot to mention him) Hes been releaseing albums all through the 80's but only blew up in the mid 90's when the renaissance started.
capleton, sizzla n bounty killa aint roll da dancehall style. this is my (and their, i guess) oppinion))
no matter about, what kind of music they make,
their music is ill & that is the only interesting fact about their music!
But I think you guys are right, too.

Personally I’m a huge fan of the roots scene in the 70s. The music back then was PHENOMENAL. As someone said, look for the "Marcus Garvey" LP by Burning Spear. Check out "Heart of the Congos" by The Congos too. Honestly, I'd take these kind of albums over ANYTHING by Bob Marley. No disrespect, that's just how I am.
A good way of picking up a lot of classic tracks is to check out the Stone Love compilations. Good place to start is "Champion Sound", which is like a collective of the best of the last 25 years of Stone Love recordings. All sorts of classic shit on there. Everything from Dennis Browns "Unity", to "Guide Over Us" by Sizzla.
A place where I expanded and discovered more reggae albums is here:

Even if you don't argree with the actual order of the albums that they are ranked, it is good to discover other artists that you might like that you never heard. Because of course its hard to rank the 100 greatest albums of any genre...but these are also based on influence, impact, originality, and lasting popularity.
Don't fuck with the Monk (a good quartet)
